In 1932, Karl Jansky at Bell Labs revealed that stars and other objects in space radiated radio waves. Credit: NRAO/AUI. Radio waves have the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum. They range from the length of a football to larger than our planet.Heinrich Hertz proved the existence of radio waves in the late 1880s. He used a spark gap attached to an induction coil and a separate spark gap on a receiving antenna.n 1932, Karl Jansky at Bell Labs revealed that stars and other objects in space radiated radio waves.

Mechanical waves use the substrate to move along (the medium). Electromagnetic 'waves' are a combination of a particle and a wave (they have the same properties of both) == photons. Electromagnetic waves encompass light, microwaves, radio waves, and gamma waves (to name a few). Since EM particles act as waves, but also have a mass they actually exist in the Space-Time continuum and can travel without a medium.
